Chapter 764 - 764 The Boxing Match Begins
The expressions of Zhao Mo and the other three froze in that instant, and then they turned extremely strange.
This news was an absolute surprise to them.
As a result, the four of them felt as if they were sitting on pins and needles. They even felt a little awkward.
“I’m a little impressed by the four of you,” Lin Yi said.
“It’s been so long, and you still haven’t found out what industries I own. I can’t believe you’re still doing business like this. Young man, this won’t do.”
“Haha…”
Laughter rang out, causing the expressions of Zhao Mo and the others to turn even uglier.
Lin Yi patted Zhao Mo’s shoulder and said earnestly, “I’m a man of my word. I won’t compete with you for that trash. If you like it, bid boldly. It’s all yours, Young Master Zhao.”
With that, Lin Yi stuffed his hands into his pockets and returned to the chair at the side, as if he wasn’t prepared to participate in the subsequent auction.
“Damn it!”
Zhao Mo cursed angrily and retreated to the side.
Originally, he was still a little interested in playing around at the auction, but after such a thing happened, he was no longer interested in joining.
Although the auction was still ongoing, everyone present could detect the strong smell of gunpowder.
Originally, these two groups of people were fighting in secret to see who was better.
However, now, the battle seemed to have been brought to the surface.
After the auction ended, there would be another set of fights.
That would probably be time for the victor to be decided.
“Old Zhang, you should have heard, right? Two nights ago, their two groups had a conflict and they’re going to fight tonight.”
“I’ve heard about it a long time ago. Who doesn’t know about this in the entire Yawan Island now? Coupled with what happened just now, things have turned so unpleasant. They’ll probably fight very fiercely.”
“Then who do you think will win?”
“Is there a need to ask? It must be the top young master of Yanjing, Gu Changchuan.” The middle-aged man called Old Zhang said.
“He’s famous for his fighting skills in Yanjing. I heard that he’s a master of Wing Chun.”
“Are you serious? He even practiced traditional martial arts?”
“That’s not all. He knows a lot of other martial arts techniques too. In short, he’s very powerful.” Old Zhang said.
“I heard from my son that he also has a boxing club in Yanjing. People from all over the country challenge him every day. Moreover, there was once when a national mixed martial arts champion challenged him. In less than ten seconds, he was beaten down by the other party.”
“That’s true, but President Lin of Lingyun Group doesn’t seem to be easy to deal with. I heard that he easily subdued Lu Xuan.”
“President Lin is indeed quite powerful, but he’s only comparable to ordinary people.” Old Zhang said.
“Among the eight of them, Gu Changchuan is an exception. In order to maintain his vigorous stamina, he doesn’t even touch women. As for the remaining seven, their bodies look like they’re already firing blanks. How can they compare to him?”
“If that’s the case, won’t President Lin of Lingyun Group be beaten to death during the competition later?”
“I wouldn’t go so far as to say he will be beaten to death. After all, they’re all people of status. However, it’s inevitable that they’ll be humiliated. Otherwise, they wouldn’t deserve the title of the four young masters of Yanjing.”
“Tsk, tsk, tsk. I don’t even want to participate in the auction anymore.”
“Haha, that’s right. During the competition later, we have to place our bets properly. The auction won’t be as exciting as that.”
In reality, it was not only the two of them who were discussing this. The others present were also discussing who the strongest contestant was.
Most men thought highly of Gu Changchuan.
They thought that the outcome of the spar between the two of them would be revealed in three moves.
However, the women present did not think so.
Lingyun Group’s President Lin was so handsome, so his skills were definitely not bad. It was still not clear who would win.
Soon, the auction officially began.
Zhang Xiaoyu also started her live stream.
Although this kind of live stream was not as eye-catching as the swimsuit party from before, this was the first time most of the people in the live stream had seen such a high-end event.
Therefore, the popularity was not low. Soon, it exceeded 5 million popularity, and it continued rising.
In less than two hours, the eight items that had been prepared had been sold and the auction officially ended.
Everyone in the venue moved to the bottom of the ship.
The small arena had already been built and was just waiting for the audience to enter.
This boxing match was also the highlight of the entire cocktail party. The wealthy businessmen who entered had already prepared banknotes and were prepared to gamble here.
The wealthy businessmen gradually took their seats. At the same time, the referee in a white shirt and black pants walked in and stood at the centre of the arena.
“Welcome, ladies and gentlemen, to today’s Starfish Cup Boxing Championship. I am the referee for this competition, Rhinoceros.”
As the gold medal host of the underground boxing ring, Rhinoceros was a famous host.
He was a professional boxer in the past, where he was given the nickname Rhinoceros because of his burly figure.
Coupled with his outstanding eloquence, he began his career as a host after retiring from the military due to injuries.
Along the way, he had thrived and gained both fame and fortune.
When the applause subsided, Rhino said,
“There will be a total of eight contestants participating in today’s competition. Everyone can place your bets to your heart’s content and cheer for your favorite boxers. I guarantee on my personal reputation that this will be a fair and just competition. There will definitely be no rigged fights.”
...
“Good job!”
“Hurry up and start. We’re waiting for tonight’s competition!”
“Our money is ready. Let’s start the game.”
The atmosphere in the venue was stirred. Soon, Rhinoceros introduced all eight members who had were participating in the competition.
Both sides were wearing red and blue battle robes. They walked up from both sides of the passageway and stood on either side of the arena, waiting for the competition to begin.
Simultaneously, Zhang Xiaoyu’s live stream officially began.
“Xiaoyu, did you bring us to watch a boxing match?”
“This is awesome. I’ve never seen something like this before. This one seems to be much more exciting than a regular boxing match.”
Zhang Xiaoyu looked around and said, “Let me tell you, this is not a formal competition, but an underground boxing match. I guarantee that you’ve never seen anything like it before.”
“Oh my god, how awesome is Brother Mask? He even dares to show this? Isn’t he afraid of being banned?”
“This already happened once during the day. You can’t test the moderators so crazily. Otherwise, we won’t be able to watch the live stream anymore later.”
...
Zhang Xiaoyu chuckled and said,
“Don’t worry. What happened during the day was just a misunderstanding. Brother Mask is very resourceful. No one will dare to block his live stream anymore.”
“Also, I have to tell you something. Brother Mask will be participating in the competition later. Everyone, cheer him on.”
